The reason it's only in 1.11.x so far, and not the 1.10.x stable branch,
is that nobody who uses/knows SELinux seemed to be able to confirm that
this is in fact correct. Is it correct? Does it work?

If the combination of D-Bus and SELinux is important to you, it would be
great to have a regular reviewer/tester who we can cc on SELinux-related
patches. I know a reasonable amount about AppArmor, but I don't use
SELinux, and the SELinux-specific code often doesn't have anyone willing
to say that they're confident it's correct.
